Wall Mount Bike Rack  

A wall mount bike rack is a great choice for people living in apartments or other residences who want to maximize their space options. Various models allow you the option of hanging your bike from a wall or ceiling or in a corner. Utilizing wall space gives you more floor space, thus allowing for more storage space.

Using a wall mount bike rack also protects your bicycles from damage that might be caused from bumping into them and even from hitting them with your car, if stored in your garage. This is a very secure way of storing your bikes. There are many different types of wall mount bike racks to choose from, vertical, folding and hooks.

Vertical Wall Mount Bike Rack

A vertical rack storage option saves space by keeping your bicycle off of the ground. The rack can be placed in a garage, basement or other storage area. Many models are designed to be assembled and installed simply and easily. Some even can be purchased fully assembled, saving you time that you can spend biking on the road. 

The nice thing about a vertical wall mount bike rack is that many racks can be staggered side by side for the person needed to store multiple bikes. This feature allows you to maximize your wall area. You can also purchase vertical mounts that store more than one bicycle as well as include a basket for helmets or other accessories.

Folding Wall Mount Bike Rack

A folding rack perfectly compliments any garage or storage area. When this rack is not being used, it can be folded flatly against the wall so no one will inadvertently knock it. Many models include a shelf as a handy place to store bike shoes, helmets and other accessories. This shelf even can double as a small workstation. This rack can store one to two bikes, depending on the one you choose to fit your needs.

A folding rack is easy for children to use. Look for ones made of steel for corrosion resistance and finest durability. These wall mount bike racks can be quickly and easily installed.

Hooks

Store one to two bikes vertically with wall mounted hooks, which can attach to any wall and fold against the wall when they’re not in use. With bicycles off the floor, you have a less likely chance of an accident by running into your bike.

Be sure to check the weight limit on the hooks, as some bikes may be too heavy to hang from a hook.
